The PATHFINDER – Custom Built in Southern California

The PATHFINDER is the first surfboard in our lineup offered exclusively through a made-to-order custom process, hand-shaped in Southern California.

This model was developed in collaboration with Morey Gyenes, whose decades of experience include shaping alternative crafts for everyday surfers and high-performance boards for top-level pros. From his own label to ghost shaping for some of the industry’s most renowned surfboard brands, Morey’s influence ensures that every PATHFINDER is both functional and finely tuned for performance.

While limited stock boards may be available from time to time, we highly recommend ordering a custom PATHFINDER. This allows us to dial in your ideal dimensions & volume, ensuring a board that’s tailored to your needs and built to support your progression in a wide range of conditions.

Whether you're looking to explore the unique feel of a modern Long Fish or elevate your performance on a beautifully tuned craft, the PATHFINDER delivers a timeless ride with a refined, contemporary edge.
